Awwww, real nice! I wub David. I wub him lots. <3

:-O I had no idea he was a member of the Royal Family! :-P

preety neet. Keep up friend

Wow, very good. How long have you been drawing caricatures for and where at? I'm a fellow caricaturist, I've been doing them for almost 10 years now and have my own company and stands in Orlando, FL near the parks.

Thanks David DNA - Thanks for taking time to comment on it.I been drawing carictures for about 10 years now. I moved to Minnesota 4 years ago from Northern Ireland. Work out at a theme park in Minnesota with Tom Richmond of "Mad Magazine" fame. Learnt quite a few things from him and the artists I have worked with out there. You got a website of any of your work?

Do you know Rich Carper, I think he works with you. He comes down here every spring break to work with me. I'm pretty sure he works for Tom Richmond also. I have a site but it's being revamped right now, it had older stuff from about five years ago anyways. I figured you've been doing it awhile, it shows in your line quality and coloring (pastels or airbrush, I thought pastels at first but I'm not sure from the resolution), also the fact that it dead on looks like him, not many people understand how hard it is to make it look like the actual person you're drawing, especially in a live environment like the parks. I'll give you credit where it's due man, you're good.

great job man, that's terrific.

Sorry, he works for him in Mass actually, thought he told me Minnesota a while back.

Thanks man I really appreciate your kind words..and yes drawing in the humidity and all sorts of elements is a skill all by itself. Im just starting this weekend as it is a a seasonal gig up here in MIinnesota...feel free to check out my blog with some of my stuff and hit me up when you get your site back up. Oh,,and this one was done with an airbrush..my weapon of choice :) [url=http://beattieillustration.blogspot.com/]Your text to link here...[/url]Take care man.

I could see the airbrush apparent in the background, the face looked like it could've been pastel at first glance. I use Prismacolor Artstix with a foam pad underneath the paper myself, no mess and quick, I've always been distrusting of the airbrush spitting on the drawing, although I find the airbrush is a nicer medium with the final product. Nobody complains about the medium until I get guys like Rich who usually work with Airbrush.
